Chapter 18
Chapter 18: Reminiscing the Past
(End Of Flashback)
I walked to my own hut and sat down on the bed.
I summoned my staff, this is my main weapon now. A viney looking staff with eyes in the middle.
Actually, this is a sunflower I made staff, the eye? It"s just a living plant that I accidentally created.
"Are you full already? Why are you calling me now? " I asked my staff in astonishment, I still have other weapons…
But this is my most favorite of all. Not only it has an eye, it communicates with me well. "The size you ate earlier." I added with him
My one-eyed staff looking flower rolled its eyes. I think we're just the same height? It looked away then non.
"Yes, I'll feed you, you're really greedy." Sigh I said. I straightened my long hair first and then stood up.
I stopped and looked in a large mirror. My hair is now around my waist, my hair has a complete color mix now. Black, pink and white.
He looks good so I let him go, then my eyes… are blue and red.
Of course my blue eyes are fake, it"s just a magic made eye to make me look good. I'm still not used to it after all these years with my blue eye.
So I usually just close me left blue eye and use my red right eye. My demon side, I held my horn… it has fully grown now.
Of course I still prefer wearing some tight outfits. The villagers here are also dressed differently than before.
I walked out and saw Phoebe and Klein still arguing to this day. Klein is usually the worrywart type.
Phoebe is the wild type because of her blessing. "Hey, let's find food for my weapon. He still looks hungry. "
I answered them both. Also I forgot to say that the half demon-angels have a white and black type of wings.
But they don"t use it very much, it"s because it doesn"t work for them. According to them, when they fly.
They lose control, so they don't use it. They also advised everyone not to use their wings. I think because they are half-bloods?
Their flying problem has a connection with their kind. I didn't ask them about it, they just hide their wings.
"I will come with you, lest you perish. Mother Calypso said we should be careful. " Klein said, Phoebe kicked him.
"We"re 27 years old and adults. We are no longer children Klein, why are you worrying so much. " Phoebe said angrily.
"And we"re married, so I have every right to worry about you. And Mother Calypso isn"t here, so I"m more cautious. " Klein argued back.
Ah I forgot to say that they"ve been married for a long time, they"re childhood sweethearts. But the two are exactly opposite.
Phoebe is super wild and Klein is super humble, of course in my opinion Phoebe seems to be under Klein.
The witch was more manly because she said, "Are you done quarreling with love birds? My son has been hungry here before. "
I said jokingly to the two of them, Phoebe smirked. "Find a wife, leader. You"re almost 30. " Phoebe suggested.
I scoffed at what he said. "Yes leader, there are many who like you here. Atsaka they are also good looking? " agrees Klein
"Stop stopping me, I always reminded myself not to have children. Shattap and let"s go. " sideways I said and walked away.
They keep insisting me to get married, eh I don't like anything here. Also the last time I heard my heart beat so fast is yung time…
Just the time I was chasing Lyf. Maybe it"s just infatuation and nothing now. Yes, maybe I have no feelings for him now.
I do admit that I liked Lyf but that was years ago, I"m sure there isn"t now… maybe just. Atsaka baka nga may iba na yun.
That's still super duper popular. I can no longer remember what happened last time I saw him, as long as my memories are blurry now.
I chose to forget those memories that day, the only thing I remember is the pain. So I chose to forget and move on. I no longer have a connection with them.
I cut them a long long time ago. "Where do we look for corrupted species? All I know is that it doesn't seem to lurk here anymore. "
I looked at Klein, he also looked at me. "Huh? Haven't you read? There are no corrupted species in our surroundings because the villagers are always hunting. "
"That's according to the report of the villagers here." Klein explained that Phoebe was upset.
"Ah… there are a lot of people in the cave where we used to live." Phoebe suggested, I wondered which cave she was referring to.
There are so many caves around them so I don't know which one. "But isn't that close to what?" Klein asked.
"Well, we"re just going to get some corrupted species. Also, from what I saw, the corrupted species got closer to their kingdom. " Shrugged Phoebe said.
"I doubt they'd be going in that cave now." He added, I knew what they were talking about so I didn"t bother questioning it anymore.
So that's it, we went to a tunnel that leads to that cave, my suspicion is correct. It was the same cave 10 years ago…
Where I saw a half angel-demon and where we were trapped by Lyf. "I immediately remembered the time I would have killed the corrupted species in the trap I set."
I looked at Phoebe. "I didn't expect that there were other people here, I accidentally hit one of them-
"That was you?" I immediately asked Phoebe… so she's like a spider clinging to the roof?
What a small world.
In the end, Phoebe inexplain to me what happened, we already arrived don the big trap. Of course there is no flesh corrupted species.
There are also things that seem to have been abandoned, I think these are research stuffs of the school that have long been abandoned.
Maybe they didn"t finish the research. "It's not my fault, I set traps for the corrupted species and not yours."
Phoebe complained to me. "Also, I almost fell because of a child who threw candles." He added.
"That"s a spirit, he was ordered. Did we know that you were also hunting? " I answered him and continued walking.
"Tsk, it's really good and I didn't fall. Ah by the way, when will Mother Calypso return. She"s been gone for like a month now. " Phoebe replied.
"Yeah, doesn"t she just stay away for 2 weeks max only? why did the month Leader reach? " agrees Klein. "Did he say anything about it?"
I didn't answer and just smiled. Actually I was getting anxious too, usually when he leaves he will come back right away.
She won"t leave the village for this long at all, and I"m more anxious about what she told me before she left.
‘You will know what to do." That"s all he said. I couldn't help but worry. "I hear corrupted species, tara."
Phoebe and I followed, because she released her blessing. She used a wolf"s ear to hear in the distance.
All I can say is that the cave is really super big, it was like a maze we went through. But since Phoebe is here I have no problem.
"We used to live here, but since you started coming here we left immediately." Phoebe's storytelling.
"Yeah, mother Calypso hates interaction with angels and demons." As we were running we reached don the place super familiar…
Ahhh, it was the place were large plants exits. But now there is no vegetation, mostly swamp. where are the plants here?
"Ah it's best that we don't go there to the cave, I heard it's that person's place before." Klein said.
"Is that the one with the weird drawing on the roof? Hays, I haven"t met this person that Mother Calypso says at all. " Phoebe stated.
"Nothing? I thought you met that person because he is your type. " I asked in astonishment. Phoebe raised an eyebrow at me. "Is he dead?"
"Psh, that? Dead? Nah, that piece of crap will live another hundred years. " Phoebe said angrily. "I heard that person has a second blessing."
"Oh?" -Me. "Did I think it was hard to have a second blessing? Especially with half-bloods? "
I forgot to say that half blood or demon-angels aren"t allowed to have second blessings. They also look like wings, it has something to do with their bloods.
Mother Calypso said that it is very difficult to learn the second blessing. Not just in half bloods but also in other races.
That"s why she was surprised to see me with a horn and a halo, it means my learning of the second blessing was successful.
I thought it would be easy to learn that, I never thought it would be that hard for others? So according to Mother Calypso…
Having a second blessing will kill half-bloods. Of course, that ‘person" is an exception, since they are naturally strong.
But normal half bloods like Phoebe and Klein. It will affect their whole body, because it is in the experiment.
Mother Calypso did see someone learn the second blessing, case the scar suddenly grew on her body and caused her death.
That"s why half angel-demons are forbidden to learn such blessings. "Hays, I hope I have a second blessing." Phoebe sighed.
"What are you talking about? Our village is ok, no need to go such extreme that it only causes you disgrace. " Klein argued.
"What- THERE'S AN OPPONENT!" Phoebe shouted so I stopped her. Suddenly they came out of the wall, corrupted species became stronger than before.
I don"t know when they became strong but it was that time when I was banished. Maybe that's also the reason why so many are entering the kingdom…
Nothing can stop corrupted species because they have become stronger. Maybe the person controlling them got stronger too.
Actually I don't care whatsoever what's going on in the kingdom, that's also what Mother Calypso told me.
As a leader, I prioritize my people than other people. So I don"t have too much pake on whoever this ‘person" is.
That person only seeks for the angels and demons, so if anything happens to them. I don't have any more.
Unless that person started attacking my people then I will really move, but because he doesn't feel sorry for us. I let him go.
I no longer care for the angel and demon race that he is the reason why I became like this. Quite thankful because I learned to stand for myself.
I immediately summoned my staff. "Eat, when you complain again you are hungry. I'm really going to feed you to the animals. " I told my staff.
The staff started glowing and growing into a large one to eat the corrupted species. "I'll take care of it." I said softly to Phoebe.
They immediately heeded what I said, there are many corrupted species that have appeared. If I were the same as before.
Maybe I"ll run away, but I"m different now. Stronger and powerful than before. These corrupted species are nothing…
But a bunch of ants that can be stepped on while playing. I raised my hand to use blessing- telekinesis. I stole a little from that Demeter child.
Even if I don't touch him, I can still steal blessings from afar. "Perish." I said softly as I clenched my fist and squished them.
Then they disappeared, I was about to turn around but a red clothed person caught my eye.
My eyes widened. "Angel?" I heard it say.
